High Quality Tailoring in Tokyo

Puppets

They have Schools and they produce shows, videos, an internet TV program and more to teach English to Kids in Japan and other Asian countries.

I was really blessed and happy to create 11 puppets that they wanted to use for their Internet TV. For the program “Sock Stories” vol1. I made Rapunzel the Prince and the Witch, for Vol 2 I made Little Red Riding Hood, the Grandma, the Woodsman and the Wolf-Boot and for vol 3. Goldie Locks and the Three Gloves. Unfotunately Worldfamily runs a membership and I can’t show you the movies on here (only if you e-mail me personally on request I can send you the links), but I wanted to share the cute puppets with you 🙂 For the puppet costumes and the quilted futon for Goldie Locks I have had a great help from my mother in law, who stitched and gave her hand for the picture!! Many thanks to her 🙂
